Lost or Stolen Periodontal Appliances or Dentures

Greg, a gaffer on Tom’s team, accidentally lost his dentures during a camping trip. He asked Tom if his plan would cover a replacement.

“Unfortunately, replacements for lost or stolen dentures aren’t covered,” Tom explained. “The plan only covers replacement appliances if they’re worn out, unrepairable, or meet specific criteria for medical necessity.”

Greg appreciated the clarity and reached out to his dentist, who offered a payment plan for a replacement. Greg also took steps to secure his new dentures during outdoor trips in the future.
